  Two of the greatest science fiction classics of all time...in one collection!  H.G. Wells (1866 -1946) - the master of the genre - created his "scientific romances" and set the standard for futuristic literature that teemed with both social commentary and a prescient view of the world to come.  Here, we present "The Time Machine" and "The War of the Worlds," two of the most popular and thrilling science fiction novels ever created...together in one volume.  First, meet The Time Traveller as he climbs into his fantastical machine and slingshots himself far into the future; so far that he reaches a point where humanity as we know it has ceased to exist and the world has become an unspeakably frightening and dangerous place.  Then...follow the Narrator as he describes the unthinkable: a deadly and terrifying invasion of Earth by the inhabitants of Mars.  The Martians enjoy the advantage of superior technological advances combined with a ruthless desire to conquer humanity and enslave them.  Can mankind survive?  Enjoy these two classics by the "father of science fiction."  This volume includes a brief biography of the author.

  Chicago’s Pants on Fire Detective Agency targets liars and cheats. But private investigator Cat DeLuca is once again up to her smokin’ skinny jeans in murder. 
  Cat is out running in a neighborhood park when she crashes over the faceless body of Bernie Love. Bernie was the finance guy for the scary Provenza family and a friend to Cat’s shady uncle Joey, a Ferrari-wheeling cop. As she hauls out her phone, Cat is assaulted by someone with a Rolex, a stun gun, and a wheelbarrow. When the cops show up, the killer is gone—and so is the body. 
  Captain Bob, a stickler for habeas corpus, blows off Cat’s story. Stung by a chorus of snickers from the Ninth Precinct, home base for DeLuca men, Cat vows to make her case and goes after the Rolex man. The murderer, desperate to silence the only person who can place him at the park, comes after Cat. She’s quickly on a collision course with the deadliest adversary she’s ever encountered—but she has the help of her beagle partner, her gun-happy assistant, a former spy (or two), and her outrageous, interfering Italian family. Meanwhile, her hot FBI boyfriend seems sidelined in Vegas. 
  In Bye, Bye, Love, K. J. Larsen delivers another nail-biting tale rife with unexpected plot twists, zany characters, fabulous food, and laugh-out-loud humor.

  The night that Flight 229 was blown apart upon landing at Washington's Dulles Airport— killing almost 400 passengers aboard— James Bond embarked on a mission that would become an obsession. Who was responsible for destroying the British-owned aircraft? Was it a straightforward act of terrorism, an assassination aimed at only one person, or a move to put the airline out of business? The search for answers has a personal meaning: Bond' s former lover and old friend, the Principessa Sukie Tempesta, is listed as one of the ill-fated passengers.
  In this white-knuckle 007 thriller, master spy James Bond undertakes the most complex and demanding assignment of his career. Across continents and through ever-changing labyrinths of evil, Bond follows the traces of clues to an organization more deadly than any terrorist army. What Bond finds could very well spell his own last days.
